In this experiment I will be running around my block every day and see my time every time and see if my time gets faster every time I run.

You chose a great everyday question and turned it into a thoughtful experiment. Your use of plaque disclosing tablets, before‑and‑after photos, and a scoring system shows strong scientific effort. Your data table and graph make the results easy to understand, and your conclusion clearly connects back to your hypothesis. It’s wonderful to see you thinking about how to improve your experiment in the future. Keep exploring questions that matter to you—your curiosity and careful work really shine in this project!
This project asks a simple but interesting question about whether practicing a physical activity every day can improve performance. I like that the experiment involved collecting data over ten days, which helps show how progress can change over time rather than relying on only one attempt. The recorded lap times clearly show a general improvement, especially with the final run being much faster than the first one. It was also honest to mention that some days were slower, which reflects how real exercise performance can vary from day to day. One way to strengthen this study could be to repeat the test over a longer period or include more runners to see if the same pattern appears. The project highlights how consistent practice and exercise can gradually improve speed and endurance.
